WS_FTP is a standard File Transfer Protocol client for Windows. This program helps you download files from FTP servers anywhere on the Internet.
The graphical interface was designed with the novice FTP user in mind, but there are also advanced features for power users. WS_FTP Pro provides advanced support for handling frequently visited FTP sites, time-outs, port numbers, passive file transfers and firewalls. It also automatically resumes interrupted transfers and includes file maintenance options to help prevent overwriting files. This program enables remote-to-remote transfers and has command-line support for automating file maintenance operations.
This version includes enhancements to both the Classic and Explorer interfaces, such as a wizard for adding new sites. Other features include a site manager that stores FTP sites and site configurations in folders for easy reference, drag-and-drop support in the WS_FTP Pro Classic interface, quick connect for immediate connection to new FTP sites, recursive delete, auto re-get, improved firewall support, and automatic detection host types. It also offers a graphical interface for connecting to FTP sites and a bonus FTP utility pack containing three advanced tools: a Find utility that lets users search an FTP site for files that match the user's criteria; a powerful scripting utility for automating file transfers and management through a series of WS_FTP commands; and a synchronize utility for synchronizing or mirroring FTP or Websites.
